MARCOS AMBROSE COMMENT ON PETER BROCK

The following is a comment from Australian NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series
driver and former Australian V8 Supercar Champion Marcos Ambrose on the
tragic death of Australian touring car driver Peter Brock.

"I was contacted in the middle of the night and just could not believe
it," said Ambrose, who now resides in Charlotte, North Carolina.

"First of all, our condolences go to Peter's family, friends and all
those people who developed a relationship with him over his 40-odd years
of racing.

"I remember coming to the US for the first time and seeing Peter
Brock on a TV commercial and thinking, hang on, this guy is a legend
everywhere.

"There are just so many tributes that I have read on line this morning
and they are all fitting.

"There simply will never be another Peter Brock and I think that is the
reason that the entire motorsport community is suffering - and will
suffer for sometime to come.

"I think it is a time for reflection for all of us. That will not
necessarily make us better racers, but maybe it will make us better
people and maybe that's exactly what Peter would have wanted."
